  • Am I useful to Lemmy or not?

    Jump

  • I have you at +10, so you’re at least posting things I find meaningful. That being said, you post a lot of political things, so expect to bring many sides of the conversation to light. The fediverse has more types than Reddit.

  • Looking for a printer. Whats your opinion?

    Jump

  • My wife has a brother black/white laser printer. I got it about 5yrs ago and still going with no issues. She does sell things and makes labels and also uses a small thermal printer that pumps out label packages. Not sure if that can double for stickers for you, but could be an option.

  • Digg’s open beta shuts down after just two months, blaming AI bot spam

  • I think I had read somewhere that they would eventually have ads, but that may have just been member speculation.

    Maybe if they go down the Apollo route they could have some sub tiers, but we’ll see.

  • I don’t think many of the niche communities really had time to thrive, since people were trying to build up a lot of the main ones. I think some were starting to just get traction, which could be a reason why they chose now, stopping before it really got away from them.

  • Some may find this amusing and interesting: Digg doesn't seem to be as active as the Fediverse.

  • Better to close the doors and redo it before ending up like reddit. In reddit’s case they welcome it.

    Jump

  • There were entire communities popping up dedicated to SEO and advertising. A lot of the spam would happen during the US night time, so they’d have to wake up every morning to sweeping away all the crap. Really curious on how they intend to handle the bots.

  • What is your least favourite thing about the fediverse or lemmy?

    Jump

  • The clashing ideologies makes it hard to gain traction for the fediverse. Since no one ever agrees on things, it ironically turns into the politics people complain about with the republicans vs democrats always being at a stalemate.

  • Some things will definitely work better over there.

  • This is really good to know. Are you aware if this has ever been addressed by them or anyone else ever?

  • It’s interesting hearing “There’s nothing on Digg it’s dead, fediverse is more active” because when I joined Lemmy people were using the same comparison of reddit vs the fediverse. Things take time to build and they are still in beta. Lemmy is way more active and settled than when I first joined (hell I originally joined kbin instead). It’s good to have competition. I am active on both and I believe they will have different demographics.

  • [Discussion] AKOTSK S01E05 - In the name of the mother

    Jump

  • I am sad these episodes are so short…

  • Can you change your body temperature at will?

    Jump

  • Next Dwight Schrute can also teach you to raise and lower your cholesterol levels.

  • [Discussion] AKoTSK - S01E04 - Seven

    Jump

  • Man, the theme coming up at the end as he road in. I miss this feeling. Binged all 4 episodes.

  • My therapist says she might have to report my abusive family to the authorities. How do I avoid being reported so the cops don't show up and make everything worse?

    Jump

  • I believe one way or another things at home will not improve. You don’t really lose much by inquiring to places. At the very least I assume your therapist would have some connections and guidance on places they would trust for you to contact.

  • ICE Employees Vent on Reddit, Saying They're Not Getting Paid and Still No Insurance Despite Promises

    Jump

  • Too bad it doesn’t also let the subreddit be spammed. Would be a nice treat.

  • Let's talk about clickbait and sources when posting

    Jump

  • As much as I dislike ai, this is why I enjoyed the short lived “Artifact” news website (Yahoo bought them out). Their feed had a feature where you could report a click bait title and it would use ai to turn it into a normal sentence. If enough people clicked it, that would become how it was seen by people. I really dislike people using the click bait title on the fediverse, but it’s a symptom of the internet today as a whole.

  • Disney deleted a Thread because people kept putting anti-fascist quotes from its movies in the replies

    Jump

  • This is absolutely golden.

  • Digg launches its new Reddit rival to the public

    Jump

  • Kevin Rose also left Digg at some point, not sure how much of that demise is on him. He had to buy it back for this second run.

  • What do you wish you'd have known before you started your hobby(s)?
